Schumacher Storm 1/10th Stadium Truck

Saw this on fb this morning... Big schuey fan. 

 

I had originally hoped this was going to be an inquisitive toe dip back into the bashing world for Schumacher... Alas this looks purebred racer...

 

... Although that's never a bad thing in reality.. 

 

Can't wait to see it with its top off... 😍

 

 

Ooooh! Colour me interested!

Description

The Storm ST is a fast and agile stadium truck developed from the Cougar Laydown buggy. It features a light weight, low centre of gravity design, for optimum performance on a wide range of track surfaces. Whether you race on high grip carpet, medium grip astro, or low grip dirt, the Storm ST is a winner. The Storm ST prototypes have already proven their capabilities with wins at the prestigious EOS (Euro Off Road Series). 

The knowledge and experience from Schumacher’s racing and engineering team has been applied to every detail of the Storm ST’s design to make a fast, easy to drive, and user friendly truck that will take you to the top of the podium.

DMS are doing it for £308 

Just as well the chassis looks a bit tasty, the body looks like its just fallen out of the ugly tree and hit every branch on the way down... including a particularly heavy frontal impact... IMO obviously...😁

Body looks like it took about 10 minutes to paint 🤦‍♂️

I hope trucks take off a bit more in the UK. Would happily buy this to race. Would compliment my Laydown perfectly

SCT took off for a while but seems to have died sadly. 

 

Truggy tires are slightly more £££ due to the size and truggys require a slightly bigger track so sadly not ideal for the UK, shame as I think they look great.

Awesome looking truck!

 

If I didnt have my ET410, then I would be straight on this.
